167) Keith Bowers [PART 1]: Being proactive in restoration and planning for a more biodiverse planet today

Keith Bowers has been at the forefront of applied ecology, land conservation and sustainable design for over three decades. He is the Founder and President of Biohabitats, a multidisciplinary organization focused on conservation planning, ecological restoration and regenerative design.   In this podcast episode, Keith sheds light on how much we need to focus our efforts on restoration versus conservation; why it is that, although we're a part of nature and all species impact their environments in some way, we've uniquely altered our landscapes in ways that require us to restore habitats; what urban ecology is all about; and more.   Episode notes: www.greendreamer.com/167 Weekly solutions-based news: www.greendreamer.com  Support the show: www.greendreamer.com/support  Instagram: www.instagram.com/greendreamerpodcast
